Arsenal ultimately resolved the stalemate with a goal from Gabriel Martinelli in the 60th minute.

They appeared poised for a hard-fought victory but Neto’s long-range shot equalized the score.

A lapse in midfield focus permitted the Portuguese to execute an unimpeded attempt on goal.

Arsenal generated superior opportunities in the last moments, yet failed to secure the victory.

Notwithstanding the impasse, there were certain advantages to retain following the international hiatus.

Martin Odegaard commenced his first match for Arsenal since late August following an ankle ligament injury.

The £30 million acquisition has participated in merely three training sessions and a four-minute appearance at Inter before to the derby.

He successfully played the full 96 minutes, demonstrating why the Gunners have lacked his presence.

The club captain successfully executed 92 percent of his passes, generating four opportunities for his teammates.

He successfully executed all of his crosses and supplied an excellent delivery for Martinelli’s equalizer.

Odegaard secured three duels and executed four recoveries in an exemplary all-around performance.

No one anticipated Odegaard’s inclusion in the starting lineup yesterday. It was unexpectedly remarkable that he endured the entire game.

Odegaard was not fully match fit and has the opportunity to enhance his fitness over the next several weeks, as he will not be participating in international duty with Norway.
